STORM LULLABY, by JEANNETTE AUGUSTUS MARKS Poet's Biography First Line: Held in the refuge of your arms Last Line: Deep is the breast of love to me. Subject(s): Dreams; Sanctuaries; Storms; Nightmares | ||||||||
I Held in the refuge of your arms, This night I hear the storming sea; High is the anger of its wave, Deep is the breast of love to me. II Gleam now the flying fish and star! Strike now the tolling of a bell! Washed in the lustre of our dream We hide in sleep as in a shell. III Held in the refuge of your arms, This night I hear the storming sea; High is the anger of its wave, Deep is the breast of love to me. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VARIATIONS: 14 by CONRAD AIKEN VARIATIONS: 18 by CONRAD AIKEN LIVE IT THROUGH by DAVID IGNATOW A DREAM OF GAMES by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE DREAM OF WAKING by RANDALL JARRELL APOLOGY FOR BAD DREAMS by ROBINSON JEFFERS GIVE YOUR WISH LIGHT by ROBINSON JEFFERS ALL DAY: WEARINESS by JEANNETTE AUGUSTUS MARKS |
